The puppies were temperament tested on March 11th, 2012, using the Volhard Method. http://www.volhard.com/puppy/pat.htm
The results for each puppy are below. For an explanation of the rating system used, please see link above or visit our page with brief descriptions of the test -Volhard Puppy Test . I would suggest printing out the document above and following along with the results while looking at the explanations of the tests.
